Anyone else capped ? For those who don't know what it is, it's when you go over your monthly useage then go back to 56k speeds (well I do anyway). Just wondering if anyone was sharing my pain... 1 hr to download video after creating a char, now another 20 loading the map... Anyways, is there a way to download some content such as maps etc. BEFORE the update begins, so we can say, leave it on when we go to bed? If not do you think it's a valid idea?

Ouch, i didnt know that happened, anyone i know that has a monthly cap usually just pays more, like leasing a car and paying extra for the extra miles/kilometres you put on it during the lease.. wow they throw you back to the 56k lol.. that sux.

Heh, yeah and thing is I only have a 1gb download limit *Shudders*... and costs freaking $40 a month, sure it's not much but Australia has the same speed with like 20gb for $30 or less...

I'm in New Zealand btw, we are known to have crappy internet etc.

It isnt that bad...

if you had to download Nightfall PvP preview, Factions Preview or last Skill Balance update, this is nothing (400 files for the update ^^)

It should be no problem for dial up, i have it and ive been playing for about 6 months now, no problem.
